It might be helpful to pick the entree first and then work your way up - its a lot easier to tweak the smaller dishes/sides to be in a compatible flavor profile than the other way around.
I would probably do the pasta bar, and vary your base sauces enough they could go along with the appetizers in some way - the pesto opens the way for more Mediterranean, for example.
